These are probably some of the most unapproachable plants in the area. They kinda remind me of a Sarlacc pit with all those pointy things poking out towards the sky. But they do have a lovely color and an interesting yet prickly construction. So this morning when I saw a bunch of the dreadful things while taking a walk, I thought…..Oh hey, I should take pictures of these. And here are my results. These thistles do lend themselves as being great for photographic subjects. I left the images large you you can enjoy the detail that I was able to capture. I hope you enjoy my little collection here.

This one especially made me think of the Sarlacc Pit on Tatooine because of all the center point inside.
